Hey look, an impromptu group play-through, this one for Shiver 1: Vanishing Hitchhiker <--game thread
The usual group play info:
Anyone is welcome to join in at any time!
Here's how it works:
The people who are participating come to this thread to discuss the game. Anything about the game: The graphics, sounds, story, impressions, and cries for help. The only thing you need to remember is that we don't want to ruin any surprises or storyline specifics for those who haven't played yet, so please hide this kind of information!
There are two ways to do this:
Use spoiler tags, which look like this [ spoiler]Type your spoiler here.[ /spoiler] (without the spaces inside the brackets. When you do it right, it will look like this once you submit your post:
[spoiler]Type your spoiler here. /spoiler]
You can click on the Preview button (to the left of the Send button) if you want to be sure you've done it right before submitting.
Change the color of your text. To do so, highlight the text whose color you want to change, click on the button at the top of the reply box that looks like nine little colored squares, and choose the color you want. Once you post, the background will be a light blue color, so keep that in mind ;)
The goal is to have fun playing this together, whilst still having the information in the thread be helpful for anyone who comes along later -- even if it's a year from now!
Yada yada yada, the usual stuff
Let us BEGIN!

Just wanted to see if this spoiler thing worked. New computer skills, yay!
I do love the melodramatic overacting! It's so fuuuuun~! 
the simplicity of the slide-style graphics. It really feels like you're experiencing a mysterious, creepy ghost story. 
Am stopping for a while as DH and I are going to cuddle through a Breaking Bad mini marathon - we're not Super Bowl sort of people - but will get back to it later.
for saying this but... I'm sort of enjoying NOT looking for objects to collect and things that morph for a change. Playing a game that is driven by PLOT is refreshing. It's interesting. It's enjoyable. I'm glad I decided to replay this one. I'm remembering why I thought it was so awesome in the first place
